FAQs

Which Shark upright vacuum is best?

For value, the Navigator Lift-Away line is a popular choice for carpet and stairs. For pet hair and mixed floors, Rotator and Stratos models with DuoClean heads and self-cleaning brushrolls offer more performance. Compare weight, head type and included tools against your floors.

Are Shark upright vacuums good for pet hair?

Many are, especially models with self-cleaning brushrolls and pet tools. Shark's Anti-Allergen Complete Seal on many models helps keep dust and dander in. For heavy shedders, choose a model with a pet power brush and a larger dust cup, and empty it before it reaches the max line.

How often should I clean Shark upright filters?

Shark generally advises rinsing the foam and felt pre-motor filters about once a month and cleaning or replacing the HEPA post-motor filter about once a year. Let filters air dry completely, typically 24 hours, before reinstalling. Check your manual for your exact model.
